Someone save this truck

72 flint built truck looks like a v8 custom deluxe with cargo light, ac, rust free tool and stowage door, with very minor rust below the door. Straight tailgate, interior all there nice hood. The truck looks 95% complete just in prices. Was originally white roof over Hawaiian blue with the belt molding trim atleast. Wood bed floor. It’s at a junkyard near my house and the looking to sell complete before parting out. The inner and outer grill is in excellent shape as well. Did I mention no rust I could see anywhere except a few small bubbles immediately below the tool box door? It’s been repainted but the paint and body work look pretty decent and I think would cut and buff pretty nice. If it does end up going for parts I’m going be buying a lot of stuff.

Price is 3K pm me if interested. I would buy it but just don’t have the resources right now. It’s exceptionally straight and looks very rust free.
Cluster and glove box door are on the seat.

Re: Someone save this truck

That would make a nice truck with just a bit of work and some $$$. If I were closer and needed another project that would be a perfect candidate. Looks like it would save someone looking for a nice truck at least $3K in body work.

Have to have the cash to do it. Just spent a lot of my savings on a down for my Yukon Denali plus I’ve got two flippers I’m working on already.

Re: Someone save this truck

Truck is sold!!! (Not to me) it appears to be going to an awesome home! I’m sure the new owner will pipe up soon enough. Glad we could save another one from an untimely demise!

Re: Someone save this truck

Thank you again, 57taskforce.
After a moment of shock, my wife took the news pretty well. I just won't count on any father's day presents.

As so many have done before, I'll try to keep up on the update posts.
Thankful to everyone here for all the great advice!

No big deal on my end at all, I know how passionate we all are about these trucks and I’ll be damned if I’m gonna let a nice one get killed off! Glad I could help the new owner and the truck into the next chapter of there lives!

I actually was talking to a local body guy/painter a little bit ago, he bought some square body doors from me. He told me that a local dealer had just taken a blue 72 on yesterday as a trade in on a used car. He said it had no motor. I showed him a pic of this truck and sure enough, same one.

Re: Someone save this truck

Now that my white GMC is running cool, I can keep her as is.

Big Blue will definitely get an LS conversion. It will be a first for me, so I am open to suggestions.

Re: Someone save this truck

Congrats on the "new" truck. Good decision on the LS swap. I am nearing the later stages of my swap into my '71 lwb. Hop on over to the 'LSx Swap" forum and read up.

Since you have a factory air truck, I highly recommend you keep the LS low mount a/c compressor. Use the Hooker Blackheart mounts and cross member and your compressor will clear the frame easily and the engine/trans will retain proper driveline angles. Plus, no modification to the mounts or a/c bracket. I also am changing to a more modern accumulator/orifice tube a/c system to work better with cycling a/c compressor. I am controlling the compressor through the ECM.

I also highly suggest you buy an entire running vehicle as a donor for the swap. It is amazing how many parts you can scavenge from the donor.

My build will cost just under $4k with me doing all the work. Large $ chunks are for specialty items like a $315 analog speedometer drive...I'm keeping my '71 gauges.
